Benzart: I'm spending WAY too much time on taht guy, but so far, the results seem to be worth the effort. Right now, I'm working on adding some more dark toned areas to balance out a three shade value scale without just firing up the torch and covering it all black. I plan to coat this one with a clear stain, so I want some darker areas too.
Some day poor Zaya will get to try her burner out...

Meanwhile, I just cannot shake the urge to hack, hack hack away at logs of all shapes(round) and sizes(not too big to move). My next project is the second two six footers for the miniature golf course. Started first one today after I got my beauty sleep(i"m still tired, and ugly, though.)
I used a split log because they need to sit flush with the surf shack wall.

That single speaker cassette tape player is my work tunes provider. While I was carving this today, I was listening to a tape I bought at the swap meet for 25 cents earler this morning. Man that Hewey Lewis guys absolutely ROCKS! That "Sports" album kicks @$$!
I'm taking what they're giving, cause I'm working for a living!!! You guys should feel sorry for me because I have to work on Sundays.

I saved some money for a Marantz Quad receiver that I saw at the swap meet for a month. I got there, cash in hand, it was gone. It's a swap meet given...
I'm glad I got all those new shirts this weekend, now I do not have to do laundry for two more weeks. Leaves me time to doodle on my tiki(Shut up Hewey! It's not what you vulgar Aussies think.)
Working on 6 tikis concurrently: I just ant to finish ONE!
